Why you should attend?

The University of Kentucky has a long-standing relationship with the men and women in uniform who bravely serve our country. UK consistently supports and honors its veterans through the Veterans Resource Center, which was established to continue that tradition of support and honor by providing UK's military and veteran populations with the service and assistance they deserve. Our goal is to ensure that their transition to college is as smooth as possible. Whether entering college for the first time, transferring from another school, or returning after a deployment, the Wildcat community welcomes veterans home!
